twip (TWentIeth of a Point) 1/20 of a Postscript point, or 1/1440th of an inch. There are thus 1440 twips to an inch or about 567 twips to a centimeter. Twips are used in Microsoft formats and products, notably Rich Text Format, Visual BASIC, Visual C++, and {printer drivers}; and in IBM AFP products. Twips were devised in the olden days to describe the sizes of characters produced by {dot matrix printers} that were constrained to multiples of either 12 or 10 dots per inch. [Is it definitely relative to a __Postscript__ point, as opposed to one of the other definitions of point?] (2002-03-11)
